Abstract
Haematological and serum biochemical measurements were carried out in 1-year-old hairless and haired hybrids derived from the Mexican hairless dog (MHD). These hybrids included F1 hybrids obtained from male MHD and female Beagles, and BCF1 hybrids obtained from male hairless F1 and female Beagles. There were no significant differences between F1 and BCF1 hybrids, nor between male and female hybrids. Except for red blood cell counts, haemoglobin concentrations and packed cell volumes which were slightly higher in MHD-descendants than in Beagles, there were no differences for haematological and serum biochemical findings between hairless and haired hybrids when compared to age-matched Beagles.
